Arcade Fire Teaming With Spike Jonze on Short Film shot in ATX

From Rollingstone.com

Spike Jonze ranks among the most creative film directors in Hollywood, but he’s still down to work on intriguing music video projects. According to a report on /film, Jonze will team up with Arcade Fire — whose “Wake Up” served as the stirring backdrop for Jonze’s Where the Wild Things Are trailer — on a short film likely based around one of the songs on the Montreal collective’s upcoming third album. The shoot will reportedly take place in Austin, Texas, and feature actors in their late-teens in a story about “friends growing apart.”
